Eiko & Koma

Eiko & Koma: Regeneration

“They have a presence, direct and starkly captivating, like no other performers I’ve seen.” —The New York Times

The Sharon Disney Lund Dance Series

Collaborative partners for more than 40 years, Eiko & Koma are venerated for their groundbreaking dance works—works that have been performed in gallery spaces, a graveyard, a river—placing their bodies within visual landscapes and evoking near-geologic expanses of time. Stark and elemental, the works use precision and stillness as the duo creates resonant performances of slowly evolving movement and image. Presenting the seminal works White Dance and Night Tide along with their latest piece, Raven, these undisputed innovators offer a powerfully moving triptych that traverses their early career and delves into dark worlds to elicit a profound contemplation of the unyielding forces of nature and human desire.

Funded in part by the National Dance Project of the New England Foundation for the Arts. NDP is supported by lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, with additional funding from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the Community Connections Fund of the MetLife Foundation, and the Boeing Company Charitable Trust.
